I've mentioned before how much I love Shimokitazawa because it's such a cool hip underground area with amazing restaurants and cool independent shops. Another fabolous addition to this area is Dramatic Manga Reading Guy. His title accurately describes him, as he sits outside the station reading Manga in the most dramatic fashion to the people who pass.
The crazy thing is he does different voices, sound effects, and even soundtracks. Back in Toronto this guy would probably be considered a threat to society or homeless. But here he's an icon to fans of Japanese comics. A Japanese friend tells me he's been on TV several times because of the amount of interest he generates. She had never seen him in person though up until a few nights ago. I salute you, Dramatic Manga Reading Guy! *high 5!
